I wanna try new things, Im not an ios fan and currently I have s6 edge for my daily drive for the last year. Im not an enterprise man but I do like to try new technology stuff. Would anyone recommend me of changing my s6 to the passport? Why?

Its a wonderful device for the serious business user. The hub, multiple apps on the home page, sound , camera all very good. Why cant BB get Google Pay Services to work on this device? that would remove most of the app issues. Also it gets heated on occasions.

The fast-track praising every ne release neglects what is tried-and-tested and, in many cases, near state-of-the art. Another thing never mentioned is that BlackBerries have an Email UI never equalled. But BlackBerry can't get justified credibility when email has been superceeded as a communication medium at 'street level'be glamorous social media eg Facebook, and so on. To do so would be like trying to sell horse-drawn carriages in a world of racing cars.
Mere fashion seems grossly overrated where quality is concerned. My PassPort is still irreplaceable to me after TWO YEARS use,

About being obsolet also depends on your point of view and your needs, the device has already a year + in the market but flyes browsing the web on 4G/wifi has lots of RAM memory, decent camera and excellent OS fluid, efficient and intuitive but underappreciated for some reason so it´s declining but I´d say for the next 3 years you´ll be covered , did I mention excellent speakers yeah! big plus.

But if you´re a business person that needs an organizing tool, browse the internet and read articles very often, twitter user or even instagram and you don´t want to go around every day with a battery charger in your pocket... this is the device! The lack of app is not such a big deal unless you´re a teenager that wants to try every new app in the market...

Phenomenal device, an opinion reinforced over time. I bought the original passport in 2014 and loved it immediately, however the lack of apps persuaded me to try Android (a Huawei Mate 7). I loved the Android, the fact that I could use various apps without issues, particularly those that need Google play services. However for business activity, productivity on Android continued to suffer and i missed the BB10 hub immensely. Six months ago I switched back upgrading to the slick BB PPSE and this time I will persevere as I've learnt the most valuable lesson. Nothing beats a BB as a workhorse - iOS and Android are children's toys in comparison.
